Study on the Grading Model of Hepatic Steatosis Based on Improved DenseNet.

Abstract

To achieve intelligent grading of hepatic steatosis, a deep learning-based method for grading hepatic steatosis was proposed by introducing migration learning in the DenseNet model, and the effectiveness of the method was verified by applying it to the practice of grading hepatic steatosis. The results show that the proposed method can significantly reduce the number of model iterations and improve the model convergence speed and prediction accuracy by introducing migration learning in the deep learning DenseNet model, with an accuracy of more than 85%, sensitivity of more than 94%, specificity of about 80%, and good prediction performance on the training and test sets. It can also detect hepatic steatosis grade 1 more accurately and reliably, and achieve automated and more accurate grading, which has some practical application value.
